Larry,

My client's advise me that this has already gone through Planning and that they have been working on this deal with the planning department for quite a while. I believe Danielle Chudawest (spelling?) has been working with them.   No work has been started.  Waiting on permits.  The plans are on file at the planning department.  It was my client's understanding that the permits would be issued as long as the attached documents were executed and recorded. 

Please see attached quitclaim deed from Chabad Lubavitch of Maine Inc. to Square One Construction (to be recorded), and Landscaping Easement from Chabad to the neighbor Briggs (also to be recorded).  I have also attached the proposed Landscaping Easement to the City of Portland.

Thank you,

-Paul

Paul,
 
Why don't you send me your proposed, required turnaround easement, and I will touch base with the planning staff, and someone, maybe me, will be back to you to approve or tweak the easement.
 
Have the actual road improvements been made? 
Did your client work with anyone from our Department of Public Services on that?
Did they work with Phil DiPierro, who inspects work for the Planning Department?
 
Or is the sequence more like planning approval, then grant easement, get house building permit, then build out road and house?
 
Thanks for checking before recording an easement to the City.
 
Larry

Hi Larry, 

I am not sure if you are the correct contact for me, but Danielle guessed you might be and provided me with your email address.  I am writing to you about a certain residential home to be constructed on Pomeroy Street.  I am working with King Weinstein and John Ponzeti of Square One Construction.  It is my understanding that in order to obtain the permits the city requested (among other items) a turnaround easement.  We have everything ready to go now.  I just wanted to touch base with you before we go ahead and record anything to make sure everything meets your approval.  Please give me a call at your earliest convenience.

Thank you,

-Paul
